Answer:
d = 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
4(3d-2) = 8d-5
Distribute
12d -8 = 8d -5
Subtract 8d from each side
12d-8d -8 = 8d -5 -8d
4d -8 =-5
Add 8 to each side
4d -8+8 = -5+8
4d =3
Divide by 4
4d/4 = 3/4
.75 ; 3/4
4(3d-2)=8d-5
12d-8=8d-5 1. distribute
-8d -8d 2. subtract 8d from both sides
4d-8= -5
+8 +8 3. add 8 on both sides to get 4d on one side
4d= 3
/4 /4 4. divide both sides by 4
d= 3/4 or d= .75
